Item Description
Butterscotch-colored, lustrous and translucent wulfenite windowpanes, to 3.0 cm, are very aesthetically intergrown on this sculptural miniature from famed Los Lamentos. The sparkly preferential dusting of tiny arsentian vanadinite crystals variety endlichite are a classic accessory. An exceptional, pristine combination example of this varietal from the 1970s-80s finds. Outstanding wulfenite from the Sam Nasser Collection. Part of Sam's label is incorrect. The Erupcion Mine is not in Mapimi, the location of renowned Mina Ojuela in Chihuahua.
